Definition ∞ Monad Mainnet refers to the primary, live operational blockchain network of the Monad protocol. This mainnet is the fully functional and public iteration of the Monad blockchain, where actual transactions are processed, and the protocol’s core functionalities are executed in a real-world environment. It represents the culmination of development and testing, providing the foundation for decentralized applications and digital asset operations. The mainnet is distinct from testnets, which are used for experimentation without real economic value.
Context ∞ The launch and subsequent performance of Monad Mainnet are critical events for its ecosystem, determining its viability and adoption within the competitive blockchain landscape. Discussions often center on its unique technical specifications, such as transaction throughput and EVM compatibility, and how these attributes position it against established networks. Future attention will focus on its ability to attract developers and users, its security audits, and its capacity to sustain a growing network of applications.
